the suzy perette silhouette of cinched waist and full skirt were extremely popular in the early fifties and a quality interpretation of dior’s famous “new look.” sidney blauner, whose manhattan firm turned out the suzy perette label, acquired the right to incorporate dior’s notions in their designs- and this dress is a fabulous example!

-classic silhouette with a fitted bodice and a full and swingy skirt

-squared neckline and low-v back

-original self-belt

-lined bodice

-back zipper

excellent - zipper replaced. a few tiny repairs that are hard to find. price adjusted accordingly.

p a y m e n t: once a purchase is made, payment should be received immediately unless prior arrangements have been made. we accept paypal and postal money orders. traven7 also offers layaway if needed.

l a y a w a y : we like to have at least 20% down to start, if possible. if not, just convo us to work it out. here's how it works-

-make the purchase and checkout with “other”

-convo us immediately to let us know how much you can put down and also give us a schedule of dates with payments that will work best for you – we like to have it paid-in-full in about two months, but if you need more time – again, convo us and we’ll work it out.

-we’ll send you a pay pal invoice for the down payment and schedule you for future invoices.

d i s p l a y: I use one form to display a wide range of sizes, so some items may be pinned for proper fit. Also, some items, such as crinolines and jewelry, are used for display purposes ONLY and ARE NOT INCLUDED with the item listed - unless otherwise noted. please note that colors may vary from one computer screen to another, contact us before purchasing, for a better description of color if it is important to you.

c o n d i t i o n: all items are sold in ''as found'' condition. due to the unique nature of vintage clothing, there might be the occasional slight or trivial imperfection. although we take great care of the used garment(s) once they reach us, they have had a previous life. vintage items are sold "as is". most items are previously owned/used. anything out of the ordinary will be accurately indicated in the item description. due to various storage environments, some items may benefit from laundering, or dry cleaning prior to use.

DOMESTIC shipping via priority mail with deliver confirmation. smaller items under $50 may ship via first class mail in order to save you money and this will be noted in listing.

INTERNATIONAL shipping must ship via international priority mail for items up to $250 USD as pay pal requires a tracking number. and international express mail for items over $250, as pay pal requires a tracking number AND a signature. sorry, these aren't our rules. and we know that some sellers are willing to incur the risks of using less expensive services, however we believe that these policies are in place to help protect both buyers and sellers and therefore help to insure a safe and pleasant transaction. we hope you understand.

we are always looking for ways to save you money on shipping, so if you have any ideas on services that are more cost efficient AND meet pay pal's requirements, please let us know and we'll be happy to look into it.
